MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
PEACE ALL AROUND US, HAVE NO FEAR.
JINGLE BELLS ROCK AND THEY ROLL.
SANTA’S ON HIS REINDEER, OH HO, HO!
OH DON’T BE DISCOURAGED MY FRIEND,
UNTIL YOU KNOW WHERE HE HAS BEEN.
HE’S REALLY BUSY AND HE KNOWS
HE CAN DO IT AGAIN.
THIS IS THE TIME FOR LOVERS TO GET CLOSE,
A TIME FOR PEOPLE TO CARE THE MOST.
THE SNOW STARTS FALLIN’, THE GRASS SO WHITE,
PRESENTS UNDER THE TREE, SUCH A PRETTY SIGHT.
THIS WAS THE CHRISTMAS THAT BROKE ALL THE RULES.
THE KIDS GROWN UP NOW, NO ONE TO FOOL.
THE SNOW HAS MELTED, I FEEL SO BLUE.
WHAT AM I TO DO?
THE TIME HAS COME AND IT ALREADY PASSED.
CHRISTMAS COMES AND GOES OH SO FAST.
THIS IS THE CHRISTMAS THAT BROKE ALL THE RULES.
I’M ALL ALONE NOW. I WAS THE FOOL.

AT TIMES YOU'D TREAT ME UNFAIR,
BUT I, I DON'T CARE,
'CAUSE I KNOW, IN TIME, YOU'LL BE THERE.
YOU ALWAYS SEEM TO CARE,
FOR ALL THE THINGS WE HAVE SHARED.
NOW I KNOW, WITH LOVE, YOU'LL BE THERE.
SOMETIMES I TREATED YOU SO CRUEL.
I ACTED LIKE AS IF I DIDN'T CARE,
HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SUCH A FOOL?
NOW I LONG FOR THAT TIME WHEN YOU'LL BE THERE.
(SOLO)
I LOVE YOU AND ALL YOUR CHARMS.
BREAKING UP IS A THING I CANNOT BEAR.
SO HOLD ME CLOSE IN YOUR LOVIN' ARMS.
NOW I PRAY FOR THAT DAY WHEN YOU'LL BE THERE.

WELL I KNOW I LOVE YOU SO,
AND I WANT YOU EVEN MORE.
BUT I CAN'T STOP THINKING OF YOU,
AND YOU WILL NEVER BE TRUE.
WELL YOU KNOW YOU HURT ME SO,
AND I THINK YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW.
WHEN WE TALKED, YOU LIED TO ME.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT I CAN SEE?
YOU KNOW ME, WHO I CAN BE?
TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG! OUR PROBLEMS CAN'T LAST LONG.
WELL I KNOW YOU HURT ME SO,
STILL, I WANT YOU EVEN MORE.
THE THINGS YOU WANT TO BE,
WHEN YOU SHOULD BE HERE WITH ME.
YOU ARE TO BLAME. THINGS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.
I HAVE SO MUCH PAIN. I FEEL SO VAIN.
WELL I KNOW, WELL I KNOW, WELL I KNOW! I'VE ALWAYS KNOWN, OHO!
WELL I KNOW!

ALL I HAVE
02:23

ALL I HAVE, ALL I WANT, ALL I NEED IS A GIRL FOR ME.
I HAD A GIRL ONE DAY WITH LONG, BLONDE HAIR AND EYES OF BLUE.
ALL I WANTED WAS A GIRL LIKE YOU WHO LOOKS SO FINE AND LOVELY TOO.
ALL I NEEDED WAS SOME TIME ALONE, BUT SHE KEPT ON COMING BACK TO ME.
ALL I HAD WAS A NICE YOUNG GIRL WITH A GENTLE TOUCH THAT I COULD SEE
IN HER, IN HER.
ALL I HAVE, ALL I WANT, ALL I NEED IS A GIRL FOR ME.
I HAD A DREAM OF HER THAT MADE ME FALL AND START TO CRY.
ALL SHE WANTED WAS A NIGHT IN BED THAT SHE COULD HAVE SPENT WITH ANY GUY.
NOW I NEEDED TO CRY SOME MORE AND TO THINK OF WHERE THAT I'VE GONE WRONG.
THEN I HAD A DREAM AGAIN, AND I KNEW THAT I HAD WAITED TOO LONG
FOR HER, FOR HER.

THE THOUGHT OF LOSING YOU JUST MAKES ME WANNA CRY.
YOU ARE SOFT AND SWEET. OTHERS JUST CAN'T COMPETE,
FOR I LOVE JUST YOU, AND YOU WILL ALWAYS DO.
TO BE TOGETHER WILL MAKE US STRONG.
TO BE TOGETHER IS WHERE WE BELONG.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD, JUST YOU AND I--
THE THOUGHT OF LOSING YOU JUST MAKES ME WANNA CRY.
YOU ARE THE ONE I NEED. YOU WERE MEANT FOR ME.

EVERYBODY NOW: BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET.
YOU HAVE SOME FRUIT IN YOUR BASKET, BUT ALL YOU HAVE IS ONLY PLASTIC.
THE HOLIDAYS COME WITHOUT A CHEER, FEELING HEAVY IN THE REAR.
YOU EAT HEALTHILY FOR THE HOLIDAYS, HOPING IT COMES AND COMES WHAT MAY.
A DEEP SADNESS LOOMS OVERHEAD, SO YOU SING A SONG OF THIS INSTEAD:
EVERYBODY NOW: BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET.
WALK DOWN THE STREET TO THIS BEAT, MOVIN' YOUR FEET AND OFF THE SEAT.
YOU EXERCISE AND VOCALIZE, AND MOVE YOUR THIGHS AND HARMONIZE.
EVERYBODY NOW: BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET.
WHAT'S OUTSIDE IS EDIBLE, BUT WHAT'S INSIDE IS TERRIBLE.
YOUR HANDS ARE SWEATY, AND YOUR KNEES ARE WEAK,
YOU'RE TRYING TO STAND ON YOUR OWN TWO FEET.
YOU HAVE A GIFT IN YOUR TWO HANDS, ONLY FEW CAN UNDERSTAND.
SO TAKE THAT APPLE, AND ALL THAT FRUIT, AND MAKE THEM GO LOOP DEE LOOP.
EVERYBODY NOW: BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET.
YOU FIND THE STRENGTH INSIDE YOU, AND DANCE AWAY ALL YOUR BLUES.
A MUG OF COFFEE, A CUP OF JOE, SAYIN' HAPPILY, HO-HO-HO!
EVERYBODY NOW: BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET,
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM FRUIT BASKET.

YOU TOOK MY HAND AND YOU TOOK MY HEART,
YOU TOLD ME YOU’D NEVER LEAVE.
LOVE IS WARMTH THAT CANNOT DEPART;
THAT’S WHAT I BELIEVED.
BUT I WAS WRONG TO SAY THAT YOU’D NEVER LEAVE ME THIS WAY.
EVERY NIGHT, I THINK OF YOU MORE.
WERE WE MEANT TO BE?
ALONE THIS TIME NEAR THE SHORE,
DREAMING THOSE MEMORIES!
BUT I WAS WRONG TO SEE THAT YOU BELONGED TO ME.
(SOLO)
WHAT CAN I DO IF YOU’RE NOT MINE?
ALL I DO IS DREAM
AM I A FOOL TO SAY EACH TIME,
“YOU’LL COME BACK TO ME”?
BUT IF I CANNOT SURVIVE, MY HOPES WILL EAT ME ALIVE.
LIKE THE WAVES THAT GLIDE FROM THE WIND,
WITH A TEAR IN MY EYE,
I CAME BACK TO SEE YOU AGAIN,
FEELING HELPLESS INSIDE.
AND IF I SAY MY LOVE WON’T END,
WILL YOU NOT PRETEND AND BE MY FRIEND AGAIN?

HAPPY EASTER

HAPPY EASTER IS WHAT I SAY.
COME ON CLOSER EVERYDAY.
WE'LL SKIP AND JUMP AND LOOK FOR TIME TO SPEND.
THEN WE'LL GET TOGETHER AND DO IT AGAIN.
WE'LL HAVE SOME FUN AS WE LOOK FOR THEM COLORED EGGS.
HAPPY EASTER TO ALL OF YOU.
LET ME SING TO RID YOUR BLUES.
LET US LIVE WITH LOVE TODAY.
THEN LET'S HAVE SOME FUN AND GO OUT AND PLAY.
THIS WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES.
WHEN I SEE THE CHILDREN RUNNIN' ALL AROUND,
I FEEL SO HAPPY. IT'S A FEELING I HAVE FOUND.
AND IF YOU SAW THEIR FACES FILLED WITH DELIGHT,
THEN YOU KNOW THIS EASTER WILL BE ALL RIGHT.
NOW HAPPY EASTER TO YOU AND ME.
A HAPPY EASTER IS WHAT I SEE.
LET'S HUG AND HOLD EACH OTHER OH SO TIGHT,
AND SQUEEZE EACH OTHER WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT.
I LIKE THIS DAY BECAUSE IT'S FILLED WITH JOY AND LOVE.

SADNESS ON CHRISTMAS DAY
02:10
|
|||
|
CHRISTMAS TIME HAS COME AGAIN
AS WE THINK OF WHERE WE’VE BEEN
AND WHAT WE’VE BEEN THROUGH.
CHRISTMAS COMES BUT ONCE A YEAR,
AND SUPPOSEDLY IT BRINGS GOOD CHEER,
BUT IT JUST ISN’T TRUE SINCE I'VE LOST YOU.
I AM BROKEN AND FEELIN’ ALONE,
LIKE A HEART MADE OUT OF STONE
SINCE YOU WENT AWAY. I WISH YOU HAD STAYED.
I HAVE FOUND MY DREAM,
BUT MY DREAM HAS GONE AWAY.
WHO WANTS TO FEEL SADNESS ON CHRISTMAS DAY?
(SOLO)
IT IS COLD AND DARK OUTSIDE,
LIKE THE PAIN I TRY TO HIDE
AND MY TEARS IN MY EYES.
BUT WHO WANTS TO FEEL SADNESS TODAY,
WHEN CHILDREN JUST WANT TO PLAY
ON THIS CHRISTMAS DAY; ON CHRISTMAS DAY?

The Santairs Auburn, Washington
I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
